  • The Centre for Integrated Research Into Musculoskeletal Ageing
    The Centre for Integrated research into Musculoskeletal Ageing The Centre for Integrated research into Musculoskeletal Ageing www.cimauk.org Photograph by Lindsay Mackenzie (2nd Runner Up - Newcastle University Student Competition) The Centre for Integrated research into Musculoskeletal Ageing Introduction Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and age-related decline in function of musculoskeletal tissues (bones, joints, tendons and muscles) are major contributors to loss of independence and poor quality of life in older people. The Centre for Integrated research into Musculoskeletal Ageing (CIMA) is a collaboration between researchers and clinicians at the Universities of Liverpool, Newcastle and Sheffield that brings together complementary and outstanding expertise in skeletal muscle, bone, cartilage and tendon biology, ageing research, nutrition and exercise interventions and clinical excellence in musculoskeletal disorders. The Centre is developing an integrated approach to understanding the processes and effects of ageing in tissues of the musculoskeletal system, how ageing contributes to diseases of the musculoskeletal system and how these processes may be ameliorated or prevented. This Centre of Excellence brings together researchers from 3 leading UK Universities to build on current world-leading research to understand why our bones, joints and muscles function less well as we age and why older people develop clinical diseases of these musculoskeletal tissues, such as arthritis or osteoporosis. The Centre is investigating new ways of preventing the deterioration of the musculoskeletal tissues that occur as we age to help preserve mobility and independence in older people. CIMA was funded by an initial grant of £2.5M from the Medical Research Council and Arthritis Research UK commencing June 2012 together with substantial investment in new posts by the Universities of Liverpool, Newcastle and Sheffield.

HUBBARD School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, LS2 9JT, UK Email: [email protected] Tel: +44 (0)113 343 4696 Research Interests I am an environmental geochemist by training with a broad interest in contaminant transport and retardation processes. My research has spanned from simple, well-constrained laboratory experiments (e.g. U(VI) sorption, University of Bristol), through more complex column experiments (University of Leeds) to field investigations (acid mine drainage, University of Reading). My current research focus is biogeophysics. This emerging field links geophysical responses with biogeochemical transformations in the subsurface and has great potential for remotely monitoring the progress of remediation schemes and aiding in site characterisation. Education 2002-2007 University of Reading PhD Environmental Geochemistry “Acid mine drainage generation and transport processes in the Tinto River, SW Spain.” This study involved seasonal fieldwork and sample characterisation using ICP-OES, ICP-MS, XRD, 2 18 18 34 XRF and stable isotopes ( H, Owater, OSO4, SSO4). A detailed investigation of sulphide oxidation mechanisms and temporal fluctuations in mining area aqueous point inputs was combined with the first high-resolution study of autumn dissolution/flood events in the river (in collaboration with the University of Huelva) and long-term datasets from downstream to produce a coherent explanation of acid mine drainage generation and transport. 1999-2000 University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne MSc Environmental Biogeochemistry Distinction 1996-1999 University of Durham BSc (Hons) Environmental Geoscience First Employment Record Sep 2008 - present University of Leeds Postdoctoral Research Assistant – School of Earth and Environment Laboratory based biogeophysics projects involving experimental column and electrode design, geophysical monitoring (self potential and bulk conductivity), geochemical sampling and analyses of fluid samples and solid samples using a range of techniques (e.g.

    Teaching and Learning Conference 2021: Teaching in the spotlight: What is the future for HE curricula? On-demand session abstracts 6-8 July 2021 5Ps: An incremental innovation Dericka Frost and Janet Turley, University of the Sunshine Coast Whilst the move to technology-enabled learning and teaching [TELT] during 2020 transformed higher education course delivery, it exacerbated the digital divide. Students with low confidence, limited internet access, bandwidth and inadequate hardware became even less visible. 5Ps is an innovative student-focused study strategy developed in response to this transition in one pathways program course at an Australian regional university. 5Ps provides inexperienced students with a formula and an explicit step-by-step guide, potentially strengthening their academic self-efficacy and independence regardless of technological inequities. A 40,000 strong force for sustainable development: Affecting change whilst enhancing employability through applied research and the Sustainable Development Goals Dr Jennifer O'Brien, University of Manchester Students at the University of Manchester represent a 40,000-strong force for potential change who want to make a difference. This presentation will critically discuss how we are harnessing the power of our students to affect change through their assessment to the benefit of sustainable development and their employability. We are deploying Education for Sustainable Development in a Living Lab approach framed around the Sustainable Development Goals. The University Living Lab equips and empowers our students with the skills and confidence to affect real change for sustainable development through interdisciplinary applied research projects required by external partners. A brave new world: Has the global pandemic broken the boundaries of tradition and reformed assessment in STEM? Dr Laura Roberts and Dr Joanne Berry, Swansea University For centuries STEM disciplines have relied on traditional, on-site exams to drive learning and knowledge.

Ancient Universities These include Oxford (founded 1096) and Cambridge (founded 1209) are known as the Ox- bridge group and are the highest ranking universities in the UK St David’s College (1822-28) and Durham University (1832) follow the Oxford structure of col- leges and are considered the highest ranking universities after Oxford and Cambridge. Red Brick Red Brick Universities were formed mainly in the 19th century as a product of the industrial revolution and specialise in highly specialised skills in such are- as as engineering and medicine.
